Homeschooling

[Kintsukuroi]

Oh, one question I had...

If you've got a young Earth creationist family, are they allowed to just chuck things out from history and science they don't want to cover? Or are they required to teach it, but just explain to their kids that it's not true and they only have to remember it for the grade?

In Texas you are not required to teach any science or history to your kids. We do it anyway but the homeschool regulations don't require it. Public schools do not teach *all* science. The teach a fraction of science that falls into the mainstream. Public schools do not teach *all* history. They teach a fraction of history and in this country they teach it with an American bias (just as each country teaches with their own bias). I tell my kids regarding *anything* they are taught in school - you don't have to believe it but you have you learn it to pass the test.
